Went here New Years Eve and listened to people do karaoke until almost Midnight. We got there at 9:30. Paid $20 for us adults and $10 for the kids to get in. The drinks had a ton of alcohol in them. Watched Fireworks over the lake at midnight. Then went home.

We have only been here 1 day but so far so good the TV’s were not programmed to the remotes and the maintenance guy came within 5 minutes of my phone call to fix them. Overall it has been a very good experience. The room is nice the amenities are great and we are very happy. I will add more at the end of our stay.

Can't rate the rooms did not get one. I went here for New Years Eve and it was incredible!!! Unbelievable!!! I don't know who picked out the selection of fire works or who designed the order they would go Hats Off & a Bow to the organizer of the production . It was SO BEAUTIFUL really unique they went for a good long time. That was the BEST display I'd ever seen to bring welcome a New Year. It really sank in reflecting on 2025 And realizing how important and special it was to welcome this new year of 2026. It had never sunk in on me that way I know the amazing show of fireworks had A LOT to do with it.If you want a very Nice New Year's Eve This is without any doubt the place to be. Young old it's great for EVERYONE and EVERY SINGLE PERSON IS WELCOMED WARMLY. If you want to get dressed up Awesome if you want to wear your blue jeans Great how ever you are comfortable is perfect. This is a wonderful group of people . The owners are humble and sincere and go way above and beyond pleasing there guests. It is a very nice and comfortable atmosphere the music is ALWAYS great. If you have not had the pleasure of being there yet come anytime the food is very good the scenery is beautiful . You can dine or hang out indoors or outside on the beautiful patio overlooking the lake. You will not be disappointed!! From the first time I went here I was hooked there is NOTHING that is not good. Come check it out for yourself You will see. You feel welcomed and comfortable right off the bat. People are always friendly it's just the kind of place that pretty much everyone fits in and likes. Hope to see you there .
